Essay contest was a winner with students, teachers and moms

The Avenue Hair Studio & Spa in Thomas Township sponsored a Mother’s Day essay contest for Freeland Elementary School fifth-graders. Each student chose to write about a special memory involving his or her mother and why she deserved a day of pampering.

The Avenue displayed these essays for clients to read and enjoy. They chose one essay from each of the five fifth-grade classrooms to receive the grand prize of a gift basket of beauty supplies. As an added surprise, all students who submitted an essay received a $40 gift card to The Avenue for their mother.

The teachers and students of Freeland Elementary want to thank The Avenue for such a wonderful surprise for our mothers.
